Origins

League of Revolutionaries for a New America has its initial roots among individuals who quit or were expelled from the Communist Party USA in the mid-1950s. A group of these individuals involved themselves in the Provisional Organizing Committee to Reconstitute a Marxist-Leninist Party that formed in 1958 with mainly African American and Puerto Rican membership.

This organization gradually disintegrated and in 1968, a small group expelled from the organization went on to found the California Communist League that became the Communist League in 1970. In 1974, the Communist League called for the formation of a Marxist-Leninist party called the Communist Labor Party that officially disbanded in 1993. Out of the disbanding of the Communist Labor Party emerged the National Organizing Committee and then the League of Revolutionaries for a New America in 1995. [2]
